Trump's continuous name calling loses many potential voters, especially Independents. MANCHESTER, N.H. — Former President Donald Trump mocked Chris Christie, one of his rivals for the Republican presidential nomination, over his eating habits and his weight Tuesday.
"Don't call him a fat pig," Trump playfully admonished an audience member who shouted out during a speech at a high school gym in Windham, New Hampshire. "You can't do that."
Trump was apprising the audience of recent polls that show him leading when he first mentioned Christie, the former New Jersey governor, who was once a close adviser.
"Christie, he’s eating right now," Trump said. "He can’t be bothered.”
That's when a man in the crowd shouted out to prod Trump.
“Sir, please do not call him a fat pig. I’m trying to be nice. Don’t call him a fat pig," Trump said. "You can’t do that.”
